Midlands Engine Investment Fund

The Midlands Engine Investment Fund (MEIF), established by the British Business Bank, aims to support fast-growth businesses looking to expand into new markets and boost productivity, supporting job creation.

The £250million MEIF is the result of collaboration between the British Business Bank, the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (BEIS), the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government (MHCLG) and 10 local enterprise partnerships, including SEMLEP. It brings together new and existing funding from Central Government, the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF), British Business Bank and European Investment Bank (EIB).

SEMLEP’s Growth Hubs work directly with the British Business Bank to offer free investment-readiness workshops for businesses looking to get finance. These workshops cover the wide spectrum of finance offers available for SMEs.
